After a failed cure for a virus goes wrong, an even worse virus is sent out into the world, wiping out nearly all who succumb to its disease. The Forward Assembly for Enduring Fate, or FAE operatives are sent forward to help the people survive this crisis as they continue to search for any clue as to how this infection arose from seemingly nowhere. We go into the perspective of Nathaniel Ringwood as he goes through his fight against the virus, and even the people he swore to protect. All places in the story will be changed in some way, and any relation to real life events are purely coincidental.

**COMPLETED** Several years after the world succumbed to a deadly strain of measles that turned those infected into crazed, mindless cannibals, Charlotte wanders the backroads alone, content with surviving day-to-day. That is until she crosses paths with Nate and his daughter, Emmi. Emmi is not and cannot be vaccinated against the disease, so the only way to protect her and give her some kind of life is to reunite her with her estranged mother in a quarantine zone on the other side of the country. Charlotte wants nothing to do with Nate or the girl who looks like her dead sister. She does not want to go through the grief of losing people again if something bad was to happen. And something bad does happen when Emmi is kidnapped, and it is no one's fault but Charlotte's. Through this obligation alone, Charlotte feels like it is her responsibility to get Emmi back, to right her wrong. In helping Nate pursue his kidnapped daughter, Charlotte inadvertently allows herself to feel again, to care for those other than herself. But with the clock ticking, Charlotte's new found family may just end up like her own, dead and destroyed, if Emmi is exposed to the disease that her father tried so hard to protect her from.
